I love your combination of pragmatism about ROI for everything that you did, and passion for the craft. 

They are all custom crafted and negotiated differently with commercial attorneys.

I need to sharpen my trade craft on how to handle these types of properties.

Every action will take 3 days to process and will come with per-transaction or per-asset fees.If you were to push the IRA to the back a step and have it make a single investment into a specially crafted LLC, then you would have more direct control over the investments you make. 

After a while I begin to take the education, knowledge, and wisdom I had obtained and craft a strategy to at least compete in the game.Starting with myself, I had gotten all my ambitions, passion, and energy (Hitter #1) to support and believe in the venture I was pursuing.

A full time agent that took the time to learn their craft and do it well, could easily grow a business.  

Learning your new craft will be a lot of work, but can be very rewarding as well.

I guess it’s just about crafting a deal that works. 

The best is to have your attorney craft a demand letter for refund of your inspection costs. 

But suppose it is an older couple looking for an exit strategy, you might craft a deal that works for all (with a competitive interest rate and balloon for them).
